Ever since humans have inhabited the Earth, they have made use of various forms of communication.
Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings had been in the form of oral (31)
. When there is
a language (32)
, communication is accomplished through sign language in which motions stand for
letters, words, and ideas. Tourists, the deaf, and the mute have had to (33)
to this form of
expression. Many of these symbols of whole words are very picturesque and exact and can be used
internationally, spelling, however,cannot.
Body language transmits ideas or thoughts (34)
certain actions, either intentionally or
unintentionally. A wink can be a way of flirting or indicating that the party is only joking. A nod signifies approval,
while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction.
Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised dots read with the
fingertips), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture signs also guide, warn, and
instruct people.

verbalization is most common form of language, other systems and techniques also

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the following questions from 36 to 42.
Carbon dating can be used to estimate the age of any organic natural material; it has been used
successfully in archeology to determine the age of ancient artifacts or fossils as well as in a variety of other
fields. The principle underlying the use of carbon dating is that carbon is a part of all living things on Earth.
Since a radioactive substance such as carbon-14 has a known half-life, the amount of carbon-14 remaining in an
object can be used to date that object.
Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5,570 years, which means that after that number of years, half of the
carbon-14 atoms have decayed into nitrogen-14. It is the ratio of carbon-14 in that substance that indicates the

age of the substance. If, for example, in a particular sample the amount of carbon-14 is roughly equivalent to
the amount of nitrogen-14, this indicates that around half of the carbon-14 has decayed into nitrogen-14, and
the sample is approximately 5,570 years old.
Carbon dating cannot be used effectively in dating objects that are older than 80,000 years. When
objects are that old, much of the carbon-14 has already decayed into nitrogen-14, and the miniscule amount
that is left doesn’t provide a reliable measurement of age. In the case of older objects, other age-dating
methods are available, methods which use radioactive atoms with longer half-lives than carbon has.
Question 36: This passage is mainly about
.
A. the differences between carbon-14 and nitrogen-14
B. one method of dating old objects
C. archeology and the study of ancient artifacts
D. various uses for carbon
Question 37: The word “it” refers to
.
A. carbon dating
B. the age
C. any organic natural material
D. archeology
Question 38: Which of the following is NOT true about carbon-14?
A. It is radioactive.
B. Its half-life is more than 5,000 years.
C. It can decay into nitrogen-14.
D. It and nitrogen always exist in equal amounts in any substance.
Question 39: The word “underlying” could best be replaced by
.
A. below
B. requiring
C. being studied through
D. serving as a basis for

Question 40: It can be inferred from the passage that if an item contains more carbon-14 than nitrogen-14,
Teacher: Nguyen Viet Ty

then the item is
.
A. too old to be age-dated with carbon-14
B. not as much as 5,570 years old
C. too radioactive to be used by archeologists
D. more than 5.570 years old
Question 41: It is implied in the passage that
.
A. carbon dating could not be used on an item containing nitrogen
B. fossils cannot be age-dated using carbon-14
C. carbon-14 does not have the longest known half-life
D. carbon dating has no known uses outside of archeology
Question 42: The paragraph following the passage most probably discusses
.
A. how carbon-14 decay into nitrogen-14
B. various other age-dating methods

D. what substances are part of all living things

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the following questions from 43 to 50.
Rachel Carson was born in 1907 in Springdale, Pennsylvania. She studied biology in college and zoology at
Johns Hopkins University, where she received her master’s degree in 1933. In 1936, she was hired by the U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service, where she worked most of her life.
Carson’s first book, Under the Sea Wind, was published in 1941. It received excellent reviews, but sales

were poor until it was reissued in 1952. In that year she published The Sea around Us, which provided a
fascinating look beneath the ocean’s surface, emphasizing human history as well as geology and marine biology.
Her imagery and language had a poetic quality. Carson consulted no less than 1,000 printed sources. She had
voluminous correspondence and frequent discussions with experts in the field. However, she always realized the
limitations of her nontechnical readers.
In 1962, Carson published Silent Spring, a book that sparked considerable controversy. It proved how much
harm was done by the uncontrolled, reckless use of insecticides. She detailed how they poison the food supply
of animals, kill birds and fish, and contaminate human food. At the time, spokesmen for the chemical industry
mounted personal attacks against Carson and issued propaganda to indicate that her findings were flawed.
However, her work was proved by a 1963 report of the President’s Science Advisory Committee.
Question 43: The passage mainly discusses Rachel Carson’s work .
A. as a researcher
B. at college
C. at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
D. as a writer
Question 44: It can be inferred from the passage that in 1952, Carson’s book Under the Sea Wind
.

around Us?

B. Talks with experts
C. A research expedition D. Letters from scientists
Question 46: Which of the following words or phrases is LEAST accurate describing The Sea around Us?
A. Highly technical
B. Poetic
C. Fascinating

D. Well researched
Question 47: The word “reckless” is closest in meaning to
.
A. unnecessary
B. irresponsible
C. continuous
D. limited
Question 48: According to the passage, Silent Spring is primarily
.
A. an attack on the use of chemical preservatives in food
B. a discussion of the hazards insects pose to the food supply
C. a warning about the dangers of misusing insecticides
D. an illusion of the benefits of the chemical industry
Question 49: Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word “flawed”?
A. faulty
B. deceptive
C. logical
D. offensive
Question 50: Why does the author of the passage mention the report of the President’s Science Advisory
Committee?
A. To provide an example of government propaganda
B. To support Carson’s idea

answerto eachofthefollowing questionsfrom36 to42.
Fish that live on the sea bottom benefit by being flat and hugging the contours. There are
two very different types of flatfish and they have evolved in very separate ways. The skates and
rays, relatives of the sharks, have become flat in what might be called the obvious way. Their

bodies have grown out sideways to form great “wings”. They look as though they have been
flattened but have remained symmetrical and “the right way up”. Conversely, fish such as plaice,
sole, and halibut have become flat in a different way. There are bony fish which have a marked
tendency to be flattened in a vertical direction; they are much “taller” than they are wide. They
use their whole, vertically flattened bodies as swimming surfaces, which undulate through the
water as they move. Therefore, when their ancestors migrated to the seabed, they lay on one side
than on their bellies. However, this raises the problem that one eye was always looking down
into the sand and was effectively useless. In evolution this problem was solved by the lower
eye “moving” around the other side. We see this process of moving around enacted in the
development of every young bony flatfish. It starts life swimming near the surface, and is
symmetrical and vertically flattened, but then the skull starts to grow in a strange asymmetrical
twisted fashion, so that one eye, for instance the left, moves over the top of the head upwards,
an old Picasso - like vision. Incidentally, some species of 20 flatfish settle on the right side,
others on the left, and others on either side.

The Beatles became the most popular group in rock music history. This quartet of extraordinarily

frenzy that transcended countries and economic strata. While all of them sang, John Lennon and
Paul McCartney wrote the majority of their songs. Originally, Lennon and five others formed a
group called the Quarrymen in 1956 with Paul McCartney joining them later that year. George

finally settled on the Silver Beatles in 1960. American rock musicians, such as Chuck Berry and

Elvis Presley, influenced Lennon’s and McCartney’s music, whose first hits consisted of simple
tunes and lyrics about young love, “Love me Do” and “Please, Please me”. The Beatles’ US tour
propelled them to stardom and led to two movies “A Hard Day’s Night” and “Help” filmed in
1964 and 1965. The so- called British invasion of the United States was in full swing when they
took the top five spots on the single chart, followed by the release of their first film.
During the 1960s, their music matured and acquired a sense of melody. The lyrics of their
songs became deeper and gained in both imagination and meaning. Their popularity continued to
grow as the Beatles turned their attention to social problems and political issues in “Nowhere
Man” and “Eleanor Rigby”. Loneliness and nostalgia come through in their ballads “Michelle”
and “Yesterday”, which fully displayed the group’s professional development and
sophistication. Lennon’s sardonic music with lyric written in the first person, and Paul
McCartney’s songs that created scenarios encouraged individuals to contribute to the character
of the music produced by the group. In addition to their music, the Beatles set a social trend that
popularized long hair, Indian music, and mod dress.
For a variety of reasons, the musicians began to drift apart, and their last concert took place in
San Francisco in 1966. The newspaper and tabloids publicized their quarrels and lawsuits, and
the much idolized group finally disbanded in 1970. However, their albums had outsold those of
any other band in history. Although all of the Beatles continued to perform solo or form new rock
groups alone, none could achieve the recognition and success that they had been to win together.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42.
Since the world became industrialized, the number of animal species that have either become
extinct or have neared extinction has increased. Bengal tigers, for instance, which once roamed the
jungles in vast numbers, now number only about 2,300. By the year 2025, it is estimated that they will
become extinct. What is alarming about the case of the Bengal tiger is that this extinction will have been
caused almost entirely by poachers who, according to some sources, are not always interested in
material gain but in personal gratification. This is an example of the callousness that is contributing to
the problem of extinction. Animals such as the Bengal tiger, as well as other endangered species, are
valuable parts of the world’s ecosystem. International laws protecting these animals must be enacted
to ensure their survival – and the survival of our planet.
Countries around the world have begun to deal with the problem in various ways. Some countries,
in an effort to circumvent the problem, have allocated large amounts of land to animal reserves. They
then charge admission prices to help defray the costs of maintaining the parks, and they often must also
depend on world organizations for support. This money enables them to invest in equipment and patrols
to protect the animals. Another solution that is an attempt to stem the tide of animal extinction is an
international boycott of products made from endangered species. This has had some effect, but it will
not, by itself, prevent animals from being hunted and killed.

Question 36: What is the main topic of the passage?
A. Endangered species
B. Problems with industrialization
C. The Bengal tiger
D. International boycotts
Question 37: The word “callousness” could be best replaced by which of the following?
A. incompetence

B. indirectness

C. insensitivity

D. independence

Question 38: The passage is divided into two paragraphs in order to contrast _______.
Tracnghiemtienganhthpt.vn – Trang web học tiếng Anh THPT hữu ích được giới thiệu trên Kenh14
/>

A. a comparison and a contrast
C. a statement and an illustration

B. a problem and a solution
D. specific and general information

Question 39: What does the word “this” in the first paragraph refer to in the passage?
A. Bengal tiger
B. Interest in material gain
C. Killing animals for personal satisfaction D. The decrease in the Bengal tiger population
Question 40: The word “defray” is closest in meaning to which of the following?
A. make a payment on

B. raise
C. lower
D. make an investment toward
Question 41: The author uses the phrase “stem the tide” in the second paragraph to mean _______.
A. touch
B.stop
C. tax
D.save
Question 42: Which of the following best describes the author’s attitude?
A. indifferent
B. forgiving
C. concerned
D. surprised

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions from 43 to 50.
RACES AND THEIR GENETIC DIFFERENCES
Genetics is the study of hereditary characteristics that are passed down from one generation of
living organisms to another. Although farmers have used selective breeding to improve the resilience
of crops and animals, it wasn't until the mid-1800s that Gregor Mendel started the science of genetics
as we know it today. Following Mendel's methods, scientists have discovered "chromosomes" and
"DNA". With the ability to study DNA, scientists were able to study the genetic differences between
races.
Modern genetics discovered that all humans are descendants of "Mitochondrial Eve," a woman
who lived over 150,000 years ago in Africa. Since the first humans were born, over 75,000 generations
have passed, and many subtle differences are now evident. Humans share at least 99% of their genetic
makeup. A 1% difference may not seem like much, but when you consider that a chimpanzee shares
98% of human genes, you realize how much a 1% difference makes!
Africans are more closely related to Europeans than any other two groups, despite the fact that
they differ so much in appearance. The biggest genetic differences are found between Africans and

the native populations of North America (22%). However, it is essential to note that the genetic
differences between people of the same race are much greater than the differences between people of
different races. This means that the argument which claims that genetic differences make one race
superior to another is nothing but a tall story.
The differences in various populations may also be the result of circumstances rather than
genetic makeup. Factors such as climate, diet, health care, education, and employment as well as other
Tracnghiemtienganhthpt.vn – Trang web học tiếng Anh THPT hữu ích được giới thiệu trên Kenh14
/>

socioeconomic factors are all influential. However, there are some traits which are genetic; for
example, there is a much higher incidence of sickle- cell anemia among black populations than any
other population group. Adult African-Americans and Latinos have twice as many cases of diabetes
than Caucasians. In the U.S., Latinos suffer more deaths from liver disease than other races. Europeans
suffer more from heart disease and cancer.
Genes not only affect our susceptibility to disease, they also affect our physical attributes. The
Dinka people from the Sudan are considered to be the tallest people with men having an average height
of 6ft 3in., while women hit the big time with an impressive 5ft 3in. This contrasts sharply with the
Pygmy tribes who get the short end of the stick at only about 4ft 11in tall.
Genetic differences may help us to tailor health services to people of different races or to detect
life threatening diseases early. However, they are not significant enough to support the claim that one
race is superior to another. In fact, our modern scientific understanding of human genetic diversity
flies in the face of almost all our social stereotypes.
Question 43: What is genetics?
A. The study of old people
B. The study of muscles in your body
C. The study of inherited characteristics
D. The study of human’s characteristics
Question 44: Why do farmers practice selective farming?
A. To make animals and crops more resilient
B. They only want to grow one crop

C. They want to increase the number of farmers
D. To make crops tastier
Question 45: What were scientists able to discover using Mendel's methods?
A. Chromosomes

B. DNA

C. Genetic differences
D. (A) and (B) are correct
Question 46: What does the phrase “a tall story” mean?
A. exaggeration
B. unbelievable
C. cynical

D. untrue

Question 47: Where do the greatest genetic differences occur?
A. Between people of different races
B. Between Europeans and Africans
C. Between people of the same race
D. Between Asians and Africans
Question 48: What two factors contribute to the differences between races?
A. Genetics and socioeconomic factors
B. Genetics and access to health care
C. Access to health care and socioeconomic factors
D. Genetic makeup and circumstances

Question 49: Which diseases are African-Americans more likely to get?
A. Diabetes and liver disease
B. Sickle-cell anemia and diabetes
C. Cancer and sickle-cell anemia
D. Cancer and heart disease
Question 50: What is the author saying in the last paragraph?
A. Races differ a lot in their genetic makeup.
B. Genetic differences aren’t significant between races.
C. All races are descendants of the same woman.
D. Genetic makeup affects people’s physical attributes.
